We'll see what the toxicology report says, but you know my prediction. And Britney Spears is probably next.

Why, because he was a celebrity?

Talk about ignorant.

Okay, this is the last time I'm warning about tasteless comments in this thread. Any more will be made invisible or the thread will be locked. Thanks.

A young man dying by any means is a tragic. I wasn't familiar with his work, however, my wife loved him to death. His death broke her heart, which in turn, broke my heart.

thanks mags. I can't believe just because someone is a celebrity and they passed away unexpected you have to think the worst. he still has a family. would you still say these things if you knew the person and their family?

Is that movie Candy any good? I keep looking at it when we go to the video store but never pick it up.

very good..shows herion addiction in a realistic light

I'll get it this weekend if they have it in. Normally they have about 4-5 copies but since he passed away the shelves will be bare

It will break your heart. It is so realistic. It will make you marvel at the potential he had as an actor.

I really don't get why people seem to automatically hate celebrities.

I think it's less of hating celebrities and more of hating people with substance abuse problems. They get what they deserve?

I dunno - think there's definitely an issue with regard to people's perceptions of celebrities. Perhaps because people resent that their attention is forced onto these people, through things like Entertainment news.

You need only look at all the comments re: Britney Spears. Amazing the amount of vitriol thrown at these people... and why...?

But where has it even been rumored that Ledger was a druggie? I've never seen a hint of that anywhere.

And even if he was, does that mean we should celebrate his death, or hope that someone can one day explain to his two year old daughter that he 'deserved' to die?

The callousness of people on this topic is honestly appalling - and this is the second board I've seen it happen. It's akin to dancing on a grave. I guess internet tough guys really do think this makes them look 'cool'.

What it really makes them look is pathetic and ignorant.
